Description

Step back in time and fall in love with this enchanting, updated 1890 home perched on one of Cathlamet’s most generous city lots—offering rare elbow room and jaw-dropping panoramic views of the mighty Columbia River. The home shines with thoughtful modern updates that honor its historic soul: fresh paint, updated systems, and tasteful fixtures throughout. The newly updated kitchen is open concept with living space, while the separate living room leads to the sunroom, which would make a great studio or office with fantastic water views. Upstairs a luxurious primary suite retreat—complete with its own full second kitchen and a sauna—great for multi-generational living, guests, rental potential, or simply enjoying peaceful separation and river vistas from your bedroom windows. Outside, the extra-large, fully fenced yard is a true highlight: plenty of space for gardens, play, pets, outdoor dining. A detached 20x20' garage/shop provides excellent storage, workspace, or a hobby haven. Just a short stroll from charming downtown Cathlamet—known for its friendly locals, riverfront access, public marina, restaurants, art galleries, and community events. This is small-town Pacific Northwest living at its finest: quiet, scenic, and welcoming, yet only a scenic drive from larger amenities. A truly rare find in Wahkiakum County—historic beauty, modern comfort, generous space, and unbeatable river views. Properties like this don’t come around often!
